When I right click on Windows Explorer, select Properties, it opens a panel, I set the value of "Start In" to "C:\", which means I want it to point to my C: drive when I open explorer, but it's not working, it always points to "Documents". On XP I did the same thing and it worked, but now I got this new PC with Vista, it doesn't work? How to fix this?

Use the explorer start params, e.g.,:
%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /e,D:\Downloads

Yep, that's it ! I'm surprised the "Start in" is good for nothing.

the "start in" only sets the 'current working directory' for the process. It doesn't mean that the process (in this case explorer) has to *show* that directory.
